An August Wedding

Kyle fell asleep on the way to the church. That's okay because we got here early to take pictures first. Let the boy sleep. Say cheese, pretty sister! All the boys had new Nikes for the wedding. Ain't that swell?

You know that Ashley is going over her list in her head to make sure everything is covered. Relax daughter, all your hard work and planning shows. Everything is perfect.

Ashley and Allisa- two beautiful and smart young women!

Hey kids! Look how grown up- Brady, Ashley, Anthony and Allisa.

Allisa: "I'm not gonna cry, I'm not gonna cry!" {Allison on the left, Laura on the right}

Thank you Ben for getting this picture. I couldn't see Brady and this is my favorite moment of every wedding- the moment the groom sees the bride. It didn't matter that they had taken pictures together and seen each other before the wedding. It was still there in his eyes...

The radiant bride...

I don't remember what Father Craig was saying during this time. It was before the readings.

Sharing a quiet moment together. Ashley was probably saying "is everybody looking at us?" and Brady was softly reassuring her that no one was looking at them! {Look at their shoes.}

Someone said that they couldn't see Ashley's shoes good enough so I added this next picture. Ashley emailed the picture to me when she first found the shoes. She was so excited to wear them.

Time for vows...

With this ring...

Look- he woke up! This was after the wedding while more pictures were being taken inside.

What a beautiful wedding for a beautiful couple! I'm looking forward to seeing the formal pictures too.
